A Blustery Day

It started out sunny Friday morning. The wind was cranking at a sustained thirty miles an hour. Later, snow clouds blew in and the wind stirred and swirled the snow all up like a snow globe. It was crazy and cold and the teeny snow flakes froze the surface of my eyeballs where they made contact.

The past few days I've been hanging out with Pastor Shaun Sells of Calvary Chapel Cheyenne working through missions policy and short term team training. He, Sheila his wife, and his leaders have been gracious hosts. I'm staying cozy, warm, and well fed at his parents house.

Shaun piled his kids and I into the church van Friday afternoon for an hour ride to their newly acquired church retreat center. The place is amazing. 240 acres of ministry opportunity in God's glorious Wyoming wilderness. No doubt this will be a place where multitudes will make decisions to follow Jesus and take their faith to a deeper level of discipleship.
